VERY VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!5
Are you preparing for the CCNP ONT exam? If you are, then this book is for you. Authors Scott Empson and Hans Roth, have done an outstanding job of including some handy hints and tips along the way to hopefully make life a bit easier for you in preparing for the exam.

Empson and Roth, begin by giving you an overview of the two different design models from Cisco: The Service-Oriented Network Architecture and the Enterprise Composite Network Model. Then, the authors describe how to set up Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express by using CLI, how to use the CLI for CME auto-configuration, how to install IP Communicator, and how to change codecs by using the CLI. They also describe how to configure QoS through the CLI, by using Modular QoS CLI for implementing QoS by using AutoQoS, and implementing and monitoring QoS by using Cisco Security Device Manager. The authors continue by describing how to use Network-Based Application Recognition for classification. Next, they discuss topics such as the phases of AutoQoS, locations where AutoQoS can be implemented, router considerations and prerequisites, and deploying AutoQoS on both routers and IOS-based Catalyst switches. Finally, the authors discuss how to configure wireless LAN QoS by using CLI, configuring encryption and authentication on lightweight access points, and working with Cisco wireless control systems.

This most excellent book is the fourth and final volume in a four-volume set that attempts to summarize the commands and concepts that you need to know in order to pass one of the CCNP certification exams. Perhaps more importantly, this great book acts like a small notebook that can be carried around, which contains little nuggets of information.
